pre-commit hook to check for large files that should be tracked by LFS

pre-commit

#!/bin/sh

# An example hook script to verify what is about to be committed.
# Called by "git commit" with no arguments. The hook should
# exit with non-zero status after issuing an appropriate message if
# it wants to stop the commit.
#
# To enable this hook, rename this file to "pre-commit".

# Redirect output to stderr.
